There are several factors that lead to foot pain or other foot problems: improper footwear, inadequate support under the arches of the feet, incorrect posture, excessive activity, wear and tear, and obesity. Foot care orthotics refer to the range of custom foot pads, shoe inserts, heel cups, ankle braces and shoe inserts that aim to correct the problem or eliminate it entirely. Walkfit Orthotic Insoles are ergonomically designed by podiatry experts as a non-surgical means of treating discomfort and suffering caused by foot problems.

It helps in three basic ways.

1) Providing heel and ankle support.

2) Distributing body weight evenly over the surface of the foot

3) Acting as a shock absorber during movement

The effectiveness of orthopedic foot care is often underestimated, but anyone who has been through the agony of a sore foot or severe back pain will vouch for them after use. Walkfit insoles and shoe inserts fix a number of problems, such as high and rigid arches, flat feet, heel spurs or a stiff big toe. It helps realign the body for balance and reduces back and hip pain and also adjusts the position of the feet to curb foot problems.

While custom orthotics require a plaster cast or computerized measurements, Walkfit insoles easily fit any size shoe and provide the perfect contour for every foot type. It is also readily available and less expensive compared to custom generated alternatives. Each pair of Walkfit orthotic shoe inserts comes with a sandal adapter, soothing foot lotion, and a month’s worth of joint support supplements.

Some orthotics may just provide extra padding for the foot and not the specialized support that will fix the problem. Walkfit insoles are designed to realign the bones of the foot and ankle to the proper extent, making walking or running more comfortable. One advantage that orthotics have over orthotic shoes is that since they can be inserted into any type of fancy footwear and even open-toed sandals, it is more aesthetically pleasing. Orthopedic shoes are indeed utilitarian, but they are not very popular with ladies who rarely want to commit to footwear. In addition to curing foot ailments, Walkfit insoles automatically take care of back and hip pain that mostly originates from imperfect posture and gait.

Another orthopedic device is the ankle brace that reduces the suffering of rheumatoid arthritis. The heel cushions act as shock absorbers while walking. Walkfit insoles also provide adequate strength to the heels and ankles, reducing the risk of ankle sprains and sudden sprains. They are shaped to correct and prevent deformities so that maximum foot comfort can be achieved.

A definite positive point of Walkfit insoles over other corrective measures is that they can be used only when necessary. Once the food is taken care of, use can be discontinued. However, it has been a trend among users of the Walkfit insole to get used to its use considering the protection that is provided for the feet. In fact, after a while, it becomes a part of everyday comfort that is rarely noticed.
